Interação dinâmica de dispositivos residenciais através de um Gateway orientado a serviços

Abstract

The research related to smart environments have emphasized the technical aspects associated with the control of these devices and the interconnection network devices, home control systems involving issues relating to the management of electronic devices in the home, starting with the acquisition and processing of data from sensing, by modifying the state of the actuators. This process involves the study of the characteristics of these transducers, the development of protocols and mechanisms for data transmission, the creation of methods of analysis and information management, the creation of interfaces, etc. For this to be possible, it is necessary to provide means which provide interoperability between appliances and control applications. This paper proposes a system based gateway services for monitoring and control of home appliances in a network of wireless communication. The proposed gateway provides an abstraction layer between applications and the underlying network infrastructure and provides services specially designed to meet the needs of specific applications. The gateway provides a standard interface to access the functionality of the appliance, which provides a high degree of flexibility and interoperability system. The design of the interface provided by the gateway was inspired in the area of Web services and related technologies used to the area, as the style of software architecture REST, considered standard ubiquitous on the Web By hiding details of setting up and adapting the network of developers, gateway minimizes the efforts of developing applications for home automation.
